I don't know if the BB Software can ban IP addresses maybe they can ban the people that are SPAMMING this board, this is the 2nd board this year that I have seen spamed by unwanted people :@

Much as I love the retro-homeliness of this board, I think maybe it's time we got a new forum.

There is some way to block people in some way, it's been done before.



---Anyone perfect must be lying, anything easy has its cost, Anyone plain can be lovely, anyone loved can be lost, What if I lost my direction? What if I lost sense of time? What if I nursed this infection? Maybe the worst is behind---

If the problem continues I'd be more than glad to buy a domain name and start a new "nine days" forum with proper moderation so that we don't get spammed. I just don't want to start one yet unless its necessary

I'm really pissed off about this!...

ninedays are working on fixing the problem, give it a week or so.
I don't know about you all, but im not ready to abandon this board =(

There is a way to rid this jerk but it has to be done at the domain level where the folder is actually stored. There is a file similar to the .htaccess file in there which can be modified to remove the user. The only problem is that he can just sign up with another name. Unfortunately it's an endless cyle. The fix would be to have the band go back to approving all the new members but can be timely and alot of stress.
I will personally look into the phorum-3.4 docs myself and see what can be done but cannot promise anything due to me starting a new business and not having much time. I was going to start a phorum for my family but this is the reason I didn't. I hate people like this! They need to get a life!
Unfortunatley, as the internet grows so do the pains of the older stuff still out there!

What about "phpbb3" http://www.phpbb.com/ as new forum software. Full of features and it's free.

Cheers!
